Some of the text labels in the templates need to be replaced by actual strings. I tried to achieve this by the following LabTalk script. However, the "label –n" command treats the message part of the command as literal. if (exist(%2)==0) { window -t plot %1 %2; // create graph window from template %1 with name %2 %2!page.title = 3; // display name and label %2!page.label$ = %5; // label window } layer -i %3; // plot dataset // label -n labelName message tmp$=$(%[%(Exposure$),3]exptm); label -n Projct ProjNam$; label -n Expsr Exposure$; label -n Durat tmp$; How can I achieve my goal with variable strings containing the message?
